Do you know what’s frustrating?

Waking up and debating with yourself

All-day long,

Asking yourself what’s right and what’s wrong.

Do you know what’s frustrating?

Judging yourself for the millionth time

Taking your silly mistakes as huge crimes.

Do you know what’s frustrating?

Caring about everything

When you know you’ll fail

And no one asks as your face turns frail

And signs of distress linger on your temple.

But you still get up

From your morning bed to reassemble,

With some hopes

That God will bless you;

Because He knows your struggles

Are true.
